He totally blew this game. I was going to make a long posy but this says it all. HORRIBLE decision to go for it on 4th and totally forgetting about the running game when we have the worst QB situation in the NFL. Maybe he's trying for a top 5 pick.

He would blow that pick on a bust. Dumbest coach in the league hands down.

Forgetting that we can run and they cant stop it might be the nail in our coffin.

The Niners are 1 game behind us.

The Rams & Hawks are 1 game ahead of us.

We are in trouble in the worst division in football.

Calling the pass plays on first down with horrible QBs (some in shot gun) is ********. I can't stand it. Whiz blew that game.

It's a team loss but some of the offense is on Whiz because he just refuses to face that he doesn't have the QB to throw the ball as much as he wants to.

D made some great plays but once again when we need them they give up the long play(the kid pushed off Rhodes) they give up the long run(dockett whiffed had a horrible game).

And then when the offense has its last chance Whiz puts too much trust in DA and we pay for it.

DA is a coach killer, he'll play just well enough to get you beat. Unfortunately we can't keep starting Hall so we have to start DA.

Where do you get the idea that we can run? I'm not seeing it.

The season is on Graves for deciding to do the QB position on the cheap. When you don't have Dennis Green picking the players why on earth would you want to draft in the top 5.

Wiz definately deserves criticism. Anyone who doesn't think so doesn't now jack about football. He isn't all to blame for this loss, but he gets his fair share from me today.

Today was all bad play call that destroyed our chances. Not taking the points on the FG, and then again, passing while in FG range instead of running it and the clock.

His playcalling was fine. 2 pick sixes and DA's int at the end was what killed us. Cards dont have a running game (as judged by Beanies 3.1 ypc) and you dont play for a tie to kick a field goal at the end of the game...you try and win it.

Herm Edwards said it best. 'YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME" not kick a fg and tie it. DA and Hall lost this game

a coach actually has to committ to running it to be successful at it.

Given this team's QB situation, Wiz is dropping the ball on this on. This team has 3 quality RB's & yet still won't run the ball more than 20 times a game. :bang::bang::bang:

Throwing the ball 65% of the time with poor QB's is a recipe for disaster.

Actually Kenny Rogers said it best when he said "You need to know when to hold em, and know when to fold em." Whiz screwed up.

The play calls wouldn't have been terrible if we had a competent QB. But we don't, and Whis' failure to admit that fact is killing us.

Had we taken the 3 points we win this game. We run and force the clock down to nothing with the Bucs having no timeouts. Whis deserves all the blame for this for obvious stated reasons. He is a poor headcoach that has a talented team. He holds them back with his decisions and playcalling. Get an offensive coordinater and find and get a real NFL QB not some reject and chemistry experiment. Loss squarely on this bad coaching staff and headcoach.

Terrible decision at the end of the game by both the head coach and D Anderson. On one hand, if you can't trust your QB to make the basic plays, he shouldn't be your QB. On the other, you can't be so stubborn as not to see your players for what they are.

To me, D Anderson seems so much better when he is under center and we have the threat of the run. Where he seems to really show his true colors is when he is the gun, and we have to throw.

At some point Whis needs to realize that while DA might be better than Hall, it doesn't mean that he is a good QB. Sometimes 3 yards and a cloud of dust isn't terrible.
